Clemson makes its program debut in the Top 25, leaping into the No. 24 spot of the ILWomen/IWLCA Division I Poll. The first-year program makes its first appearance after pulling off an 11-10 upset over Duke.
The top three teams stayed put in Week 5, with No. 1 North Carolina and No. 2 Syracuse both remaining unbeaten through the early season. Florida jumped two spots this week after defeating Loyola.
The ILWomen/IWLCA Poll will be unveiled Mondays throughout the season. It is voted on jointly by coaches throughout the country and members of the media.
